The judge also left open compensation claims for 3-months. This means shelters, rescues, and other victims can file a motion for restitution with the courts for consideration if they do it within the next 90 days. Nearly 30 other misdemeanor animal cruelty charges were dropped and part of the plea deal.

Walker’s wife Diane, pleaded to one count of Misdemeanor Animal Cruelty last October. The District Attorney dropped all other 27 charges as part of the bargain. She was sentenced to two years of probation.

The Florissant couple was arrested after animal control officers confiscated around 100 starving and neglected dogs from the Walker’s Pawsatrack Sled Dog Kennel in Hartsel in 2009. 8 dogs were found dead.
